5MP Camera for Raspberry Pi

This 5MP camera module connects to Raspberry Pi boards via the dedicated CSI interface. It captures 2592 x 1944 pixel still images and records 1080p at 30 fps, 720p at 60 fps, and 640 x 480p at 60 or 90 fps. The OV5647 sensor suits hobbyists, educators, and developers building vision projects. It is not intended for buyers who need higher resolution sensors or global shutter capture.

Thermals noise and power

The module draws power directly from the CSI bus and has no active cooling or moving parts. Operation is silent and adds minimal thermal load to the host board. The built-in photosensitive resistance automatically switches between day and night modes based on ambient light. No external power supply or fan control is required.

LED light and software support

An integrated LED provides illumination for low-light and night-vision scenes. The camera is supported in the latest Raspbian release, enabling immediate access through standard library calls. No proprietary drivers or bundled applications are included. Users who require IR-cut filtering or motorised lens control must add those separately.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the CSI ribbon cable to the Raspberry Pi board without bending the contacts?

Align the blue side of the flex cable toward the Ethernet port, lift the CSI connector latch gently, insert the cable straight and flat, then press the latch down until it clicks.

Will the OV5647 sensor or the built-in LED need replacement after extended night-vision use?

The OV5647 sensor is solid-state with no moving parts, and the LED is rated for tens of thousands of hours; neither is a user-replaceable component.

At what frame rate does the 1080p video mode max out during long recordings?

1080p is limited to 30 fps, so sustained captures stay at that rate rather than dropping to a lower resolution.
